Antonio Diez Martin Ribera del Duero Crianza 2016
About the wine
Antonio's deeply delicious red takes savory Spanish wine to the next level
If you enjoy Tempranillo, wait 'til you get a taste of this delectable Crianza (a.k.a., Tempranillo that's been aged a year in oak and a year in the bottle)... the rich red fruits, peppery spice and big, luxurious finish will leave your taste buds wanting more.
With Angel funding, Antonio harvested grapes from one of Spain's most prestigious wine regions, right on the banks of the Duero river. The stoney river soil make the vines work twice as hard, growing grapes with robust flavor.
Your scrumptious red is perfect for savory dishes like juicy rack of lamb with freshly-cracked pepper. (Don’t forget to let it breathe for a bit before sipping.) ¡Salud!
Best before
After 12 months in oak, this wine will improve with age. Optimal drinking from now until 2025.
Serving advice
Breathe for at least an hour - or decant gently - and serve at room temperature.
Food match
The perfect meal is baby roast lamb, with rosemary potatoes.
Contains sulphites
